boing. stiffies [2760]
NOTE: EACH PRODUCT COMES WITH A PAIR OF SPRINGS
the boing experience
experience unparalleled style and exceptional performance with our stiffest line of product, "stiffies"!
whether you have a crazy heavy chassis (looking at you, galm...), or whether you hate the bounce, boing has you covered!
please note that springs are very subjective and spring rate should be considered based on preference, track size, and surface
the titanium experience (why yes, i am a nerd)
when comparing titanium springs to traditional steel springs, there are numerous advantages
✧ titanium has a more linear stress-strain curve compared to steel- throughout spring actuation, you can expect consistency throughout the range of spring motion!
✧ it also possesses higher yield strength compared to steel- this significantly increases the fatigue resistance of our springs
all springs are susceptible to creep and permanent deformation-- eg: too soft of a spring loaded on too much weight, or temperature effects which cause steels to expand or contract. since titanium has higher strength and coefficient of expansion, the likelihood of this happening is reduced quite a bit!
✧ don't forget the pretty colors! titanium can be put in an electrochemical bath to form a beautiful protective layer over the surface, the inherent nature of titanium allows creation of titanium oxide, which is a protective layer that will continue to "self-heal" when scratched or damaged.
this is a stark contrast between steel, which forms iron oxides (rust) when damaged, which expands, flakes, and eventually causes premature failure of a spring if you are not careful with a coated/painted steel spring.
the list goes on, but I'd rather not put you to sleep reading a product description
